Hi All, I've been enjoying reading the different views on buying this old iron sight unseen. Seems like there are opinions from one end of the ladder to the other. Is the practice unwise? Well, of course it is. But ya know what? I think there are different avenues of approach. I think that for a lot of us, it is a game and the fun lies in the gamble of the thing; it is the unknowing and it is kinda the unknown "Christmas Present" when the treasure finally arrives and you get to see what you really did get for your money. It is the "How smart was I on this buy?" thing. Some people like to go to the Casinos and throw their money at a one-armed machine, other people like to play the lottery, and still others like to bet on sporting events. I view these doings the same as flushing the money down the toilet, but others see it differently; each to his own. My wife likes to put money in the stock market. I like to chase old iron. We both know that we are taking a chance with what we invest. She is probably making more money than I am, but I think I�m havin� a lot more fun & my toys are a lot bigger! :>) A view from poverty hill, Allan
